After a shaky start by Skinner, the team bailed him out and scored a ton.
Looks like McD is healthy again but also over his lack of confidence because I think it was both.
Leon looks like he's out of his funk.
Nuge is starting to come on.
Ekholm looks like he's back.
Hyman continues to play well, same with Kane.
Nurse and Ceci have been good and fairly solid for most of the season.

Since the coaching change, I've noticed an improvement in the PK since Stuart took it over.

I've liked Hamblin. Another goal, he gives you what he has.
I'm hoping the assist Brown got gets him going.




At the same time, Skinner rebounded nicely after a shaky start. He shut them down in the second and third

I am not trying to "pick on him" but McLeod not scoring is becoming an issue. I view the 3rd line center position as pretty important and I don't think you can win long term if your 3rd line center is McLeod with how it's going. He's going to have to have one hell of the remainder of the season to change my mind.

He hasn't scored a goal in 36 games. He doesn't shoot much with 26 shots in 20 games. He's not physical at all with 16 hits in 20 games. He's not even a dominant faceoff guy at 47.6%. He skates fast and can be on your PK. But you need more for a guy that plays 15 mins. I think they need an upgrade at 3rd line center and I would use McLeod to do it. I just don't see it with him.
